Still around.

Fri Jul 10, 2009, 6:19 AM
Hey everyone, just thought I'd drop in with another update. I know I'm not around much these days, and I'm sorry about that. Just between job hunting and trying to set up plans for the future without any signs of cash inflow can be rough, and I admit to laziness from being fed up with it as well. Living off of the good graces of my wonderful parents, and even though I help out whenever I'm needed, I know it's not enough to compensate for the mooching… but enough with the pity party, right?

[link] <-- An extremely awesome short film. I'd elaborate on it, but I don't want to ruin its charm. Though, I will say, I do know the feeling it has well enough, and I can have quite the soft spot for things of its nature. Somewhat comically, but more on the pathetic side of things, this journal update was made primarily for pointing out that short film. But, moving right along…

Did you know that "noes" is actually a word, and not just some 'lol speak' phrasing? It, somewhat obviously to the point of it being a moment that -facepalm- was made for, is the plural form of "no."

At this point of the journal, I realize this is more of a random assortment of things, and less of a coherent update. I also realize I seem to use some larger words earlier in the morning when I've gone without sleep. To which I must thank the profound ability of my Mac's spell check option, which is available in just about every text field you will come across, even if my use of it was not extensive my any means. I just prefer not to misspell things. Call it professional, call it OCD, call it whatever you may wish to; I call it me. I'm not sure how many people actually read these journals of mine, but it can be nice seeing it all laid out as much as it is to let it all out, you know?

In my outdated video game news, I'd like to turn your attention to a fun game Bioware was heavily involved with; Jade Empire. I played through it again, for what may possibly be the tenth time, but I did things a little differently. Normally, I'm the type to pick only Leaping Tiger, Stone Immortal, and the Long Sword styles, but this time I grabbed Storm Dragon along the way. Let me tell you, that saved me more times than I'd care to embarrassingly recount. It doesn't hurt the victim of its blows, it merely shocks them enough to paralyze them for a few moments. But when you combine that with a few quick blows and keep switching between it and martial styles, you have a deadly, cheap, and reliable method for trashing just about anything in your path (to anyone who has experience in the game, Demons and Golems are obvious exceptions). What made it even better, it allowed for the shortest and easiest one-on-one fights ever. Even when fighting the Emperor and Master Li, you won't get hurt much at all. Also, Phantom Dust is still the most awesome and original game for xBox in history. I know I might get shot for this, but it tops Halo any day. Hmm, does anyone else find it sad that the longest part of the update was about video games…?

Oh, as a quick note for fiction readers out there, I highly recommend "The Graveyard Book" by Neil Gaimon.

Anyways, I'll end the the journal here, to save your eyes some trouble and your head some aches. Take care people, and remember: It's never good to get your foot caught in a blender.

To turn away and not become
Another nail to piece the skin of those who love
My deeply than the oceans,
More abundant than the tears
In a world of embracing every heartache. -Jars of Clay
:) thanks so much for making my day :)
